CONGRATULATING THE MOUNT ST. CHARLES BOYS HOCKEY TEAM ON WINNING | |
|
THE RHODE ISLAND 2013 DIVISION I HOCKEY STATE CHAMPIONSHIP | |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Introduced By: Senators Cote, Picard, Archambault, E O`Neill, and P Fogarty | |
|
Date Introduced: April 04, 2013 | |
|
Referred To: Placed on the Senate Consent Calendar | |
|
1-1 |
WHEREAS, Mount St. Charles, in jam-packed Meehan Auditorium, put on a superb |
|
1-2 |
display of hockey and defeated La Salle to win the state title. Mount’s hockey title in 2013 |
|
1-3 |
represents its 5th title in six seasons, and the 43rd title in the history of the Rhode Island |
|
1-4 |
Interscholastic League State Tournament, which extends back to 1933. Mount St. Charles hockey |
|
1-5 |
is not only the most dominant program in Rhode Island school sports, it is also one of the greatest |
|
1-6 |
high school sports programs in the nation; and |
|
1-7 |
WHEREAS, The current Mount St. Charles hockey team had to overcome the adversity |
|
1-8 |
of losing arguably its best player when star forward Brian Belisle went down to injury and missed |
|
1-9 |
two-thirds of the season. However, Mount not only persevered but flourished in his absence, only |
|
1-10 |
losing two games, and when he returned, the team went on to win thirteen games in a row, |
|
1-11 |
including the state title; and |
|
1-12 |
WHEREAS, Mount St. Charles met arch-rival La Salle in the state finals and began the |
|
1-13 |
series with a bang, rolling over La Salle 7-0 in the first game and firing 67 shots at the La Salle |
|
1-14 |
net. The second game was a closer affair, but in the end Mount St. Charles was simply too good, |
|
1-15 |
and it defeated La Salle 5-2 to win the Championship series 2-0; and |
|
1-16 |
WHEREAS, Mount was led by the stellar play of senior forward Daniel Glod, who |
|
1-17 |
scored three goals in the series and was named the Tournament MVP. However, winning a state |
|
1-18 |
title requires the complete support and determination of the entire team and every Mount St. |
|
1-19 |
Charles player contributed significantly towards the championship season. The members of the |
|
1-20 |
team include Justin F. Lewis, Mario F. DaFonte, Kevin J. Vallentine, Michael L. Corrente, Marc |
|
2-1 |
A. Squizzero, Patrick B. Holmes, Captain Brian P. Belisle, Henry L. Alienello, Vincent M. Pearl, |
|
2-2 |
Tyler J. Scroggina, Daniel S. Fontaine, Justin D’ Abrosca, Thomas J. Crudele, Keegan M. |
|
2-3 |
O’Leary, Daniel S. Glod, Ryan C. Badeau, Matthew N. Demers, Devin A. Votta, Keith T. |
|
2-4 |
Phaneuf, Peter B. Cook, William D. Burns, David R. Cannata, Brett D. Simoneau and Brian A. |
|
2-5 |
Larence. Also, no team can win a state title without excellent coaching and Mount St. Charles |
|
2-6 |
received that and more from its head coaches David Belisle, Norman Belisle, and Bill Belisle, and |
|
2-7 |
from its assistant coaches Peter Capizzo, Paul Guay, and Larry O'Donnell; now, therefore be it |
|
2-8 |
RESOLVED, That this Senate of the State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations |
|
2-9 |
hereby congratulates the Mount St. Charles Boys Hockey team on winning the 2013 Rhode Island |
|
2-10 |
Division I Hockey State Championship. We applaud this team for furthering the Mount St. |
|
2-11 |
Charles tradition of superlative ice hockey; and be it further |
|
2-12 |
RESOLVED, That the Secretary of State be and hereby is authorized and directed to |
|
2-13 |
transmit duly certified copies of this resolution to the Mount St. Charles Boys Hockey Team |
|
2-14 |
Head Coaches, Mr. Bill Belisle, Mr. Dave Belisle, and Mr. Norman Belisle. |
